I don’t know if it’s the most boring ever, but the copy and paste approach to monthly content is getting old. It’s starting to feel like running AQ the same way over and over again.

I don't find Week 3 boring. Mantis is a PITA.

This week's bottom path plus Mantis was something...definitely not boring though...

OP is talking about doing all levels 100%. It is a little too grindy for my tastes.

That's the easiest of all for me. Level 1 I do on Auto. Level 2 and 3 go down fast. 4 isn't bad. 5 has only been a real pain this week.

The problem in lower difficulties is the map layout, you need to keep pressing the paths after every fight so it doesn’t even feel like auto. It is very tedious. 5 different paths would’ve been much better than this layout but they could’ve just gone with 3 paths and it would’ve been much better

Isn't that the same with any Auto? Honestly I do it while working or watching YouTube so it's not really a bother to me. Personal preference I suppose.

I wouldnt really say it was boring it wasnt to easy but not too hard which is something i like
Personally i dont think blasting throught side quests with 1 sp2 is that fun which is an opinion completely seperate from what you were saying

The main thing i felt that was boring wasnt the quest its self but how slow the game was running it took like 10x longer than normal for me to do 100% then again that isnt the case for everyone i just look at it this way, there's only 4 fights in the quest and each path you get done is 1 less you have left to complete.

However the design of the map itself i didnt find quite enjoyable id have perfered there just be 5 seperate paths instead of having to run the same path twice but this is the first time ive seen a layout like this so i dont really mind it

Easy, yes. OP didn't say it was hard, he said it was boring. I agree. I don't love grindy side quests. Level 5 isn't hard if you have a good domino, sun spot, etc for the Mantis fight. If they hadn't added the two extra paths, or didn't incentivize exploring multiple difficulties it would be fine. As it is it's not horrible, just a grind to do it all.

Normally if there is single path with no other paths branching from it then auto play becomes very easy you just need to press once and the quest is done. But in the current layout there are different paths branching from one another and you need to press 3-4 times to finish a path and that is almost like playing the game on manual
